Bergen, Tuskegee, Guatemala, values-based medicineAbstract
The aim is to describe the human experiments —without the patients' consent— in the cities of Bergen (Norway), Tuskegee (Alabama, USA) and Guatemala City as a categorical imperative to rescue them from bibliographic darkness. They are related with a look from the era of Medicine-based on Values. The despicable events are interrelated with bioethics and philosophical anthropology to prevent events such as those narrated from happening again. First, not harm!
